“I need to find a way to balance between commercial action films and making something I really want to make.” – Jet Li
I didn’t expect Jet Li to hardly speak any English when I met him. It turns out that he spends hours learning to speak his lines in American movies in order for them to sound natural. But that didn’t stop me from having a great conversation with the man. He’s so intense in his movies but in person he was jolly and it was a real pleasure to make a DMX joke and have a smile break across his face.
I got a chance to talk with Jet Li about his movie Hero which is finally getting a release from Miramax in the United States, upcoming projects and kicking ass and taking names.
